Why does this girl look at me with a kind of sad face?

[Anonymous]

Ok, here's the situation. There's this girl i knowfor about 1 year and a half now, and we're in college. The thing is that I noticed about a month ago that she'll put a sad face on when she sees me and I can't figure out why she does this. We don't have any conflict going on or anything, plus I rarely talk to her. Any idea why she might be doing this?

Thans for all your answers guys. I appreciate the help and I think I have a pretty clear idea now.

Most possible she likes you and she's sad because maybe she thinks you dont like her and dont show interest to her.

The same situation actually happend to me when I was in highschool, there was a girl who likes me and it was very obvious but I wasn't into her and I think she knew it, however she was keep trying her chance with touching me and staring at me. One day she locked her eyes to me and gave that "sad look" lmao I didn't know what to do. Like wtf? Is it my fault to do not speak with you? I dont like you lol.

If you dont like her just nevermind her, wish for her the best lol.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

She may be unhappy about situations going on in her life and it just so happens your there so she sort of leans on you by giving you a sad face cause she feels bad about things.

[Asker]

You mean she wants me to ask her what's wrong?

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Yes i agree :)

[Asker]

Ha ha. I see :) thanks man

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

You're Welcome :) :)

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Thank you for most helpful guy :) )

[Asker]

You deserve it ;)

[Bekahdewolf]

If its only when she looks at you its the fact she likes you and you haven't even noticed so now she's judging her ability to attract and the fact you rarely talk to her shows you dont notice her. Ifs it even when she's not looking at you maybe she's going through a tough time and you are the only one whose bothering to pay attention. This sounds like the beginning of a love story or tragedy you decide.

[Asker]

I'll try to create another option

[Bekahdewolf]

Go for it she probably just needs a friend going through tough times and you just noticed

[patella]

could be slightly ajar: that she would like to grow closer, yet has her inhibitive curcumstances, say an active subpar pairing of sorts/ filial buffers

[Anonymous]

It might be because she has a crush on you or something.
There's this guy who I found kinda cute since day 1 at school (I noticed that he gravitates towards me often, looks at me etc) a few days later I developed a crush on him and I actually never talked to him. I get so nervous, I start ignoring him; I end up looking like I don't like him...
.. And that could be her reason.

[confusedgirlxox]

Yup I have done that... completely ignored a guy I really liked cause I got nervous.

[Asker]

It's really counter intuitive. I'll see if that's the case. thanks for the advice

[Tdawg223]

Haha, same story with the girl that I had a crush on. I work custodial in a university building, and she worked as a secretary in another department, but we passed by each other a lot. She would always smile at me, but I got nervous around her, so I never talked to her, and she eventually just stopped looking at me like she used to. At times I’d act like I didn’t see her so I didn’t give myself away. Now I’m kicking myself I never approached her

[tinkerfail]

Everyone's already dropped the "maybe she likes you" bomb but yea, that's what it sounds like to me. c: Maybe just try talking to her, and did you try talking to her the day she ignored you? or did she just nit initiate anything?

[Asker]

She sometimes ignores me on purpose, I'm sure it's not a 'coincidence' because it happened a lot. I talked to her on rare occasions but not when she ignored me because i could feel that she was doing it.

[tinkerfail]

hm, then maybe it's just time to move on and stop worrying about her. I know i hate playing that game and i usually just end it if it happens frequently. Or just straight up ask her why she ignores you.

[Asker]

Ok, I'll try. Thanks for the answer

[tinkerfail]

no worries, best of luck!

[Dim1213]

Well it could be she likes you and she feels that you won't return her feelings or she is dealing with some stuff and she puts on a sad face hoping you will ask her about it cause she need to talk with someone and she trusts you but is to scared to tell you.

[TiddleTaddle]

probably a way so she can get your attention so you can ask her what's wrong she probsbly likes you if she only pulls it when your around because she wants yur attention

[Asker]

did you see it happen before?

[TiddleTaddle]

Yeah mate this girl used to do. it to. me all the time and I asked her what's wrong. then suddenly she just blurted out.
" I really like you I just don't know how to tell you"

sounds like some cliché TV story but it took me out of the blue

[Asker]

Ha ha, that's really surprising reaction. I'll try to figure it out, and thanks for taking the time to answer

[TiddleTaddle]

Alright mate best of luck ☺

[Ghazwan2]

Is she beautiful?

[DogMakeAMove]

Did a conflict ever at all happen?
Was there any romance/fake romance?
Have you said something and maybe it went around as a rumor?

These are the most probable scenarios I can think of. She could also just be sad in general or have a resting sad face.

If you still don't know just ask. won't hurt anything.

[Asker]

ok, thanks

[Nyx_85]

Dude it's obvious!

She's a psychic and she sees a bad future for you.

Only reasonable explanation.

[JamesCX]

And when I say something like that my answer is reported as non sense... 😒it's a sad sad world

[Nyx_85]

@JamesCX There there.

[LesterJester]

Aw, I was thinking something similar. Like she had a vision of something terrible happening to him and every time she sees him, he is continuing on the same path towards that terrible future. She wants to save him, but she's too shy and feels awkward around him.

Hey Anonymous, go with that and be the hero. Save her by saving yourself... Go talk to her.

[Asker]

@LesterJester you have a vivid imagination

[Nyx_85]

@LesterJester That makes perfect sense. Maybe she's the only one that can save him, but it will never happen if he never talks to her!

[Anonymous]

Maybe she was interested in you but the feeling wasn't mutual?

[Asker]

How to know?

[Opinion Owner]

well it's hard to say since you said you guys rarely talked. But if she purposely put extra effort in to trying to talk to you or getting to know you. Or being flirty with you.

[Asker]

The reason we rarely talk is because she was talking one day and then totally ignoring me the next, so i didn't want to play that game. thnks for the reply by the way

[Opinion Owner]

Maybe she was busy and not purposely ignoring you! But I get why you wouldn't stay invested because that game is annoying. and no problem!

[Anonymous]

My resting face usually looks kindov sad/angry. I usually make this face when I like a guy but am to nervous to look directly at him/dont want him to know im checking him out. Maybe your girl thinks the same?

[Asker]

Except that it's not her resting face because i know how it looks. she seems to give the face of someone who' s a bit desperate.

[Opinion Owner]

She might be in need then, and may want someone to talk to. Or it still may be attraction and she feels you dont feel the same. Try talking to her and see how she responds.

[Asker]

Ok, thanks for the answer

[MusicMayhem]

Maybe if you're a bit of a loner and don't socialise much with others or fit in, she feels sorry for you. Happened to me in school with a girl.

[Asker]

How did it happen?

[MusicMayhem]

I don't understand what you mean? But there was this girl in a lot of my classes who was very caring and when she'd see me around she'd have this kinda sad, sympathetic look on her face and would sometimes say hi and ask if I was coming to class, what I was doing etc.

[Asker]

If she was askinh why you didn't come, it probably means that she could feel it when you're not there which means she notices you.

[MusicMayhem]

No I was always there, she just saw me studying shortly before the class and I guess just asked if I was coming as a sort of reminder that it was starting soon.

[shan_shan]

why don't you go and talk to her just friendly and see how she reacts instead of imagining things...

[Asker]

We're on a break 😀

[shan_shan]

okay after its not like the break is forever😀

[writing_essays]

I sometimes get anxiety attacks around guys I like and when that happens I am my anxiety or shame could be mistaken for sadness.

[Anonymous]

Maybe she secretly likes you or even (okay this is crazy) gets reminded of someone she used to know before who she either misses or let her down. Maybe an ex, a father, brother, a friend, who knows?

[melanieeeB]

I would say topical girl drama, you could just ask her or let it be

[Anonymous]

She might have seen you with other girls, or heard from someone you like particular girl n she doesn't like it hence she gets sad whenever she faces you its normal behavior.

[realperson02]

maybe because it's been a year and you still didn't make a move. she probably thinks you are a wussy.

[Asker]

too big of an assumption

[confusedgirlxox]

She's sad it's been a year and you still don't have the balls to ask her out.

[Asker]

I think you're jumping to conclusions.

[Princeofanons]

It couldn't be any clearer that every time she looks at you it makes her sad because it's traumatic...

[Sha84]

maybe because you rarely talk to her and she likes you to be more interested in her

[queengirl08]

Maybe she's going through stuff. Maybe she wants you to talk to her. Maybe she would like to be your friend. Maybe she's just tired of seeing u for an year and a half. Maybe she thinks she's not pretty enough for u.. Small talk and find out.

[mrsingle]

Could it be she doesn't like you but sees you always checking her out and it annoys her?

[Asker]

I never check her out

[Adamnman]

She's probably nervous around you. Make a funny face back and see if she smiles. Keep doing it and she won't be able to look at you like that anymore.

[ty420]

just talk to her, take her out and bring her home for the night :D

[Anonymous]

Are you asking this because you like her, or because she's bothering you?

[Asker]

Just curious

[FaithfulGuardian]

Because probably you mad her sad. What did you do to her?

[Asker]

nothing

[Jmak500]

She knows she blew her chances with you for being an idiot. Or she truly likes you and feels you don't like her back

[WriterAndPainter]

Have you recently started dating someone new?

[Asker]

no i haven't

[WriterAndPainter]

Maybe she thinks you know something or she's asking you for help indirectly. Could be a few other things

[lord_chilled]

maybe she wants you and is too shy to make a move

[Anonymous]

Stay away or it could be a false rape allegation

[curiouschris1975]

Resting sad face 😭
